I'm the breeder behind Lake Country Newfoundlands located in Shoreview, MN. We are a Minnesota family of Newfoundland lovers who have also become breeders of our favorite furry gentle giants. We have a one-year old puppy who needs to be rehomed due to a family situation. Her name is Daisy (please see photos) and she is a 100-pound Newfoundland who has been raised with 2 small children. She is looking for a new family to lover her and be loved by her. Daisy will be sold with all of her AKC papers, but will not have breeding rights and the future owners will need to agree to have her spayed when she turns two. The Dam Charlotte is our 140-pound Newfie and daughter of a champion-sired Newfoundland imported from the Czech Republic. Finn the Sire is a 160-pound Landseer Newfoundland who also comes from a champion bloodline in Virginia. Both Sire and Dam have had their hips and heart tested and have been found to be extremely healthy.
About David
Currently, we have one of our Newfoundland puppies available, who is a year old (born Nov. 2022) and needs a new home. Daisy is a 100-pound Newfie who's family is in a situation where they can no longer keep her. We are selling her for $1250, but normally our puppies sell for $3000 or more. We have discounted the price because of the situation she is in. She is incredibly lovable and gentle, as you can see in the pictures. Daisy has her AKC papers, but will not have breeding rights, and needs to be spayed when she turns two years old in 2024
